1 pound turkey breast cutlets or slices gently pounded to an even thickness
to taste salt and freshly ground black pepper

Return turkey cutlets to pan and heat.

To serve, spoon marmalade sauce over cutlets.

Hints * For a dish with an Eastern taste, add 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon curry powder. * To create an Asian dish, add a splash of sesame oil and a 1 to 2 teaspoons light soy sauce. * For a spicy Mexican flavor, add 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin in the sauce and garnish with cilantro sprigs.
